2006 Aprilia RS125 0.1L Petrol · DX56 HFD

The Aprilia RS125 presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no active defects. The most recent test on 19 January 2023 at 13,097 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories recorded. Prior to that, the machine passed without fault on 25 August 2021 at 11,793 miles and on 20 June 2020 at 10,770 miles. The only blemish is a failed test on 24 August 2021 at 11,789 miles, reversed the next day with a pass and no defects logged, which points to a minor administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. At roughly 20 years old the recorded 13,097 miles equates to about 655 miles per year, confirming very light use. The odometer moved only 1,327 miles between the April 2018 test at 10,596 miles and the June 2020 pass at 10,770 miles. A short gap appears between the 2020 and 2021 entries, then the bike sat for over seventeen months before its last test in early 2023. Such low annual mileage and standing periods suggest the previous keeper used it as a seasonal toy rather than a daily runner. The DVSA record shows no corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake disc scoring, or exhaust emission failures across the timeline. A buyer should still inspect the chassis and fairings for structural rust where road salt may have sat during storage. Check the fork seals for weepage and the caliper pistons for seizure given the long idle spells. Confirm the tyres are not perished from age and that the chain and sprockets retain lubrication. The 2021 fail with no defect listed warrants a glance at the V5 and test paperwork to rule out a lighting or paperwork omission. Overall the history implies careful, infrequent use with no worsening mechanical trend.
